Hi all, I'm a newby to the forum and a new (well X reg 1.9TD, but new to me) Fiat Scudo AutoTrail Motorcaravan owner. I've got a couple of problems!
The odometer reads OK for the trip but switches to 3-778 for total miles.
It should be reading approx 33884. Any ideas?
Second item - the fuse box behind the glove box hasn't got a lid, and I've no idea which fuse protects what. Has anyone got this info? Thanks
 
Hi, I have a doblo jtd myself, just looking around the forum.
I have just had my dash board in bits playing with it.
In a doblo the LCD odo display is a multi plexed device, if there is just one digit missing and there is a gap, it must be the LCD screen its self, in a doblo it is easy to take it off and replace it, the difficulty is taking the circuit board off the plastics, you need to put a small screw driver in the holes which hold the needles in place and carefully lever the needles off, to replace, start the engine then switch off and all needles go back to 0 so you know what position they need to be in.
Not that difficult but fiddly, care is needed removing the needles, lever the shaft in the hole not the long bit of the needle.
Still the odo meter is not part of an MOT, if it does not have one the mechanic writes ''odometer not readable on the MOT.
 
In fact it is likely to be the contacts to the LCD display, on the back of the circuit board, behind the clocks, there are 4 steel lugs, they hold the display in place and the contacts tight, if you just twist them they will tighten the contacts and it will work. Trust me.

You don't have to take the needles off or replace the unit, just take the clock unit the whole plastic including perspex screen, unplug the multi connector at the back, take the plastic cover off the back, you will see the back of the circuit board and the lugs...just twist them tight.
 
If you take the perspex screen off the clock assembly, and press on the plastic just below the display, it will light the missing digit, however when you remove your fingers it will go off again. But this will prove that it is a connection problem.
